The Traveling Salesman Problem > adj matrix; > adj list;
Given a collection of cities, along with pairwise distances between the cities, what is the
shortest route that visits each city exactly once and returns the the starting city? This
question is commonly referred to as the traveling salesman problem (TSP). The traveling
salesman problem can be reformulated as finding a Hamiltonian cycle of least cost in a
weighted graph — a Hamiltonian cycle is a cycle that includes every vertex in the graph.
This assignment will focus on a brute-force solution to the traveling salesman problem.
Program Specifications
You will write a C++ program to implement a brute-force, permutation-based solution for
the traveling salesman problem. Your program will take in a single command line input
specifying a file to read. The input file will contain one or more lines, each of which specifies
a directed edge the form “src dst wt” where src and dst are non-negative integers indicating
the source and destination vertices of the edge, and wt is the weight of the edge. I will
provide you with sample input files for testing, but it is your responsibility make sure that
your program behaves correctly on any valid input file. Your program will output the cost
of the minimum Hamiltonian cycle. See the end of this handout for example output.
You will need to implement your own adjacency matrix or adjacency list structure to store the
graph. Take care not to over engineer your data structure — you do not need to write a full
class to implement your graph data structure. I suggest that you rely on standard template
library containers for your implementation (see https://cplusplus.com/reference/stl/). For
instance
• std::vector
• std::vector
Regardless of the data structure you choose, do not hard-code limits on your data structure
size. Also, please note that variable-length arrays (VLAs) are not part of the C++ standard
and should not be used. For your solution, you make use the std::next permutation
function.
Submission and Grading
You must use skeleton3.cpp (see iLearn) as a starting point for your program, and complete
the TSP function; feel free to create any additional helper functions or include any additional
standard libraries that you need, but do not modify any other existing functions. Your
source code should be contained in a single file and should be named after your TTU email
address excluding the “@tntech.edu” (e.g., jagraves21.cpp). All submissions will be made
on iLearn — please do not zip or compress your files. Make sure to follow best coding
practices (proper naming conventions, useful comments, etc.). Your program should compile
without errors or warnings. Programs will be compiled using the following command:
g++ -Wall -pedantic -std=c++11 [source file]
Sample Output
The following lines contain sample input and expected output to your programs. Please note
that these examples are not exhaustive, and you should verify your programs with additional
test cases.
$ ./a.out graph1.txt
18
$ ./a.out graph2.txt
14
$ ./a.out graph3.txt
No Hamiltonian cycle exists.

For your first written assignment, you will have to review the case study and complete a conceptualization using the following questions below:
Camila is a 17-year-old, who identifies as non-binary and multicultral. She is currently in her senior year of high school and has been having thoughts of suicide for the past few days, however no plan, intent, or means. She recently was rejected from from prom date about 2 months ago, due to him wanting to take another person, who happens to be her best friend. Camila stated that her best friend is not interested, however, she is still hurt that this is even happening.
Camila is a B+ student, who works a few hours at a pet shop, as she is inspired to be a veterinarian. Camilia also volunteers in her community Boys and Girls Club a few hours out the month as well, as she likes to support children and meet new people.
Camila lives with her mother and maternal grandmother, her father is in jail for committing a crime. Camila shared that she has a “somewhat” close relationship with her mother and grandmother, however, they want her to focus more on her education, and not “relationships.” Camila shared that she finds it difficult to talk to her family about her issues because they believe she is “dramatic” and “focused on the wrong things.” Camila shared that when she seeks validation for her looks and good grades throughout her life, she is often ignored or never met with praise. Camila has found herself crying to sleep, struggling to eat, feeling disinterested in her goals for college, and lonely which has intensified since the day she was rejected from her prom date.
Camila shared that she has been having thoughts of suicide because she “does not feel worth anything anymore to anyone.” Camila has decided to speak with the school counselor to discuss the matter, due to her making a note about not wanting to live, and another student finding it; that causes concern for the school and her family.
Based on the case study, Discuss the symptoms related to the case study, and how you would consider assessing the client using the following measurements:
What, if you believe should Camila be diagnosed with at this time? Why? Justify the diagnosis that you choose based on chapter readings and literature.
What are the psychosocial factors impacting Camila?
COMP – 10205 – Data Structure and Algorithm
/0 Comments/in Programming /by bonniejecintaQUESTION
You are to complete the starting code that has been provided for aSortedLinkedListthat will
store a collection of items and maintain the order of the items at all times. You will need to
add functionality for the following methods:
• add
• remove
• toString
In case of the add method, the elements must be added in sorted order. When you add the
following words in this order [Bob, Carol, Aaron, Alex, Zaphod], the list when printed using the
toString method will appear as [Aaron, Alex, Bob, Carol, Zaphod]. You may not call any sort
algorithm to achieve this result. Your goal is to ensure that the list is always in a sorted state.
With the remove method, the element specified must be removed from the list and the current
order maintained.
The class provided has been provided as a generic class. It will work with any object data type
class that is Comparable. In your main method you must demonstrate that this works using
two different data types that add elements in random order to the list. The sorting order in all
cases will be ascending alphabetic order (‘A’ at the top, lowest integer at the top, etc…).
Once you have demonstrated that your class can handle two different data types (make one of
them String), you will need to compare the performance of the class against the standard java
ArrayList class. To achieve equivalent functionality with the ArrayList, add each name to
the list and then call Collections.sort method after each each item is added (ythis must be
placed in the loop that is adding the items. This will ensure that we are comparing the same
functionality in both classes (always sorted).
The main program as provided will read names from a text file (baby names) and place the
content into an array. It is suggested you use this data for comparison purposes for the String
data type.
Suggested Steps:
1. Create an add method for the SortedLinkedList<T> class
2. Test the add method from main to ensure elements are added in sorted order. To do
this you will need to complete the toString method.
3. Create a remove method for the SortedLinkedList class
4. Test the remove method from main to ensure elements are removed from the list and
that after removal the list is still in sorted order.
5. Add a Discussion (in a comment) to the top of the file that contains your main method
discussing the results obtained. Answer each of the following questions:
o Do you notice any significant performance difference between the
SortedLinkedList<T> and the ArrayList<T> classes when adding items?
Explain the differences using Big O notation for the different algorithms.
o Do you notice any significant performance difference between these two
collections when removing items? Explain the differences using Big O notation
for the different algorithms.
o When would you choose to use a SortedLinkedList over an ArrayList based
on the results of this assignment?

I see a mistaken use of values by the social worker in this particular case instead of a use of knowledge. The social worker’s decision to change the locks on the elderly man’s apartment was based on a value of protecting him from harm, which is commendable. In my opinion this intervention failed to address the underlying issue of the man’s vulnerability and his continued willingness to engage with the abusive young woman. The social worker may have lacked knowledge or understanding of the dynamics of elder abuse, including the complexities of abusive relationships and the challenges of breaking free from them. The dysfunctional outcome is evident in the man’s continued victimization and the persistence of the abusive cycle (Levy-1974).
In my opinion the mistaken actions taken during the intervention were due to a lack of understanding of the dynamics of elder abuse and the complexities of the client’s situation. Issues overlooked but needed to be explored are providing education and support to the client about the dynamics of abusive relationships and the warning signs of exploitation as well as connecting the client with resources and services, such as counseling, support groups, and legal advocacy to address the underlying issues contributing to his vulnerability and to help him develop coping strategies and safety plans.
The positive intervention with this client would begin by conducting a thorough assessment to understand his unique circumstances, needs, and goals. This would involve exploring factors such as his social support network, cognitive functioning, mental health, financial situation, and capacity to make decisions. Understanding human behavior and life stages can help inform the social worker’s understanding and intervention with the client. Knowledge of the aging process and common challenges faced by older adults, such as social isolation, cognitive decline, and physical frailty, can help the social worker recognize the client’s vulnerabilities and the factors contributing to his susceptibility to abuse (Levy-1974). In addition, awareness of the impact of past experiences, trauma, and attachment patterns on current behavior can help the social worker understand the client’s decision-making process and his willingness to engage with the abusive young woman despite the harm she causes. Understanding the developmental tasks and transitions associated with late life, such as retirement, loss of loved ones, and changes in living arrangements, can help the social worker contextualize the client’s experiences and identify opportunities for intervention and support (Gordon-1965).
According to research a useful intervention for this client could involve a combination of individual counseling, support groups, and case management services tailored to his specific needs and circumstances. Individual counseling could help the client process his experiences, identify his strengths and coping strategies, and develop skills for setting boundaries, assertiveness, and conflict resolution (Linzer-1992).

Assignment/Peer Review – Is Oedipus Complex?
Overview
We can certainly believe that theatre was always a part of our human existence and a part of every culture. The mimetic response, ritual, and masks (whether physically or emotionally present) are necessary for entertainment, tradition, and, in some cases, survival.
In 5th Century B.C. in Athens Greece, Theatre was a part of the culture and many of these stories and styles have been well-preserved. Even William Shakespeare (much, much later and of a different region altogether) dramatized known stories and legends.
A great example of a playwright who was prominent among the Dionysian festivals was Sophocles. He is known for the play, Oedipus Rex (or Oedipus The King), the first part of a trilogy. This play, is one of the oldest plays that has survived from the origins of theatre and well-structured, it is worth knowing. Plays of this time (as many even now do) were performed essentially to teach a lesson. Call if a parable, or sermon of sorts, we can relate, or may even judge, Oedipus for his behavior. The Greeks often credited fate (in this case the God – Apollo) to determine the outcome of human destiny.
But, in this play, it was not without a character flaw (hamartia) in Oedipus known as hubris, or excessive pride.
You may have heard of the “Oedipus Complex” or have heard about this play though other courses. If you haven’t yet become familiar with Oedipus, you are in for a terrific story.

The problem I have decided to focus on looks at the need for a technology course for students in grades kindergarten through fourth grade. Many districts provide their students with some form of technology to use in the classroom throughout the school day. However, educators have a difficult time in the early childhood classroom to focus on using these different technological resources. This is very apparent in my district and within my specific building’s classrooms. The elementary teachers are required to find ways to add technology into their curriculum and lessons. However, our students need someone to take the time to show them how to open their Chromebook and log onto a computer and find the applications that are appropriate. Our districts and the state require elementary teachers to assess their students using these different forms of technology. However, our students are unable to log on and use a Chromebook. Many of them are not able to use the mouse pad or type as they do not have those motor skills developed yet. If we have extracurricular classes that focus on physical education, art and music, why do we not have a trained educator that focuses on appropriate technological tools for young students? Providing our students with an educator who can correctly match the correct forms of technology with the students ability levels would benefit everyone. This course would also benefit the students as they are able to practice some of these more challenging skills like typing or using the mouse pad.
The resources I have available to me to help identify and select this problem was based on what is available within my school district, but also when discussing with educators from surrounding districts, what they are struggling with as well. The lack of available time to teach our students to use these different forms of technology seems to be a common issue between elementary teachers. Many of these districts provide students in the elementary level with some form of technology. They will need to use it to complete programs and testing, however they do not allow the students to receive instruction on how to use these resources and materials. It is left up to the classroom teacher to find time and ways to create a comfortable classroom environment. That includes these pieces, but does not allow time to the students on how to operate them. educators are also finding it frustrating that their evaluations are being based on the students ability to pass assessments that are given using these forms of technology. However, many students are not able to complete the assessments correctly as they are unable to use the technology appropriately

Assignment Instructions: Leader Response to Error
The Module 2 mini-lecture and resources discussed the complexity of the healthcare environment, individual and system level factors that can contribute to errors, and the importance of leadership in addressing quality and safety. The CANDOR toolkit was also introduced, offering structures and tips for responding to errors. Information from the IHI Modules will also assist you with this assignment.
Review the AHRQ Implementation Guide for the CANDOR Process: Communication and Optimal Resolution Toolkit. Skim the Introduction to the CANDOR process, resources, and checklists. Watch: Grand Rounds Presentation Video: Communication and Optimal Resolution. This 1-hour video shares examples from The University of Illinois hospital, how they use the CANDOR process, “Just Culture,” and a systems approach for handling medical errors.
Assignment Scenario: You are a leader in a healthcare organization. You have been informed that a safety event has occurred and a patient required additional testing but will be discharged home soon, with no apparent long-term effects. You have learned that the nature of the error involved an inexperienced nurse who was floated to your unit. IT was reported that the nurse misunderstood some medication orders. The nurse has recently assumed an assignment on the night shift and states they are feeling fatigued and not sleeping well. They are considering leaving the profession. You are responsible for the initial response to the error.
1: Introduction: Create an informative title and compose your Introduction (1-2 paragraphs) of the importance of the leader response to errors.
2. National Steering Committee for Patient Safety: Review the 17 recommended strategies under the four priority areas. Select two strategies from each priority area and discuss how leaders might apply these to improve quality and safety ( no more than two pages).
3. Leader Response to Error. Review materials from the IHI Modules and CANDOR toolkit. Describe and discuss how you would apply concepts when responding to the above assignment scenario. Create a sub-heading for each of the topics below. Questions can be general. (no more than four pages)
4: Addressing Emotional Harm: Read article the by Bell et al. which discusses consequences of patient/family emotional harm stemming from preventable medical error. Reflect upon the described actionable strategies. Review the 20 Things Organizations Can Do Now (Table 3). Select one item that might be applicable to the assignment scenario. Discuss why your team selected this item. ( no more than 2 paragraphs).
5: Conclusion: Write your conclusion (1 paragraph).
